Baltruschat then finished unbeaten six short of a century as Henlow lost six wickets reaching their target in only 26.2 overs.

They lost by nine wickets to Flitwick seconds at Cople on Monday night after posting 94-6 in their 13 eight-ball overs.
Teenager Lewis Sinclair achieved the rare feat of scoring a century in a Twenty 20 match - and it was against local rivals Clifton.
